Miele DA 262 I Ventilation Hood User Manual


 
Air extraction
Danger of toxic fumes.
Please heed the ,,Warning and
Safety Instructions to avoid the
dangers of toxic fumes.
The cooker hood should be in-
stalled according to local building
regulations. Seek approval from the
building inspector where necessary.
Connection for extraction
The extraction ducting should be as
short and straight as possible.
To ensure efficient air extraction the
diameter of the exhaust ducting
should not be less than 125 mm (5").
The use of flat ducting also reduces
the air extraction efficiency.
The use of exhaust ducting with a
diameter less than 125 mm (5") and
flat ducting increases the noise level
of the cooker hood.
Only use wide radius bends. Tight
bends reduce the air throughput of
the cooker hood.
Only use smooth or flexible pipes
made from non-flammable materials
for exhaust connection.
Where ducting is horizontal, it must
be laid to slope away at 1 cm per
metre (1/8" per foot) , to ensure no
condensation drains into the ap-
pliance.
If the exhaust air is to be ducted out-
side, the installation of a Miele tele-
scopic wall vent is recommended.
If the exhaust air is to be ducted into
a vent flue, the ducting must be di-
rected in the flow direction of the flue.
Connection
Only use narrower diameter pipe-
work where it is unavoidable, for
example where existing pipework
has to be used.
The narrower the diameter the lower
the performance and the noisier the
operation.
If a connection to 100 mm (4")
diameter piping is to be made, fit the
reducer supplied (adaptor) on to the
exhaust connection of the cooker
hood.
